Re: What are the advantages of placing gears vs waiting for them to be lifted?

If you have to wait for the pilot to lift the peg to remove the gear your wasting valuable time, especially if the pilot doesn't see your robot sitting there. If there was 3 pilots and not 2 in the airship having the pilot life the gear out of your robot might not be a bad play. But every second your robot is sitting there waiting is a second of game play you've lost.
